Product Description

The Powercab 112 is engineered to deliver superb tonal results with any modeler. A perfect sonic complement to Line 6 Helix® guitar processors, completing the chain—from guitar input to guitar speaker. The Powercab™ 112 is a 1x12 active speaker system that delivers an authentic amp-in-the-room playing experience when paired with any modeler. When set to Flat mode, you simply plug your modeler in and play; Powercab 112 amplifies the sound of your presets as they are, much like a standard FRFR speaker system—but with the response and feel of an actual guitar amplifier.

Line 6 PowerCab 112 Active Amp Modeling Speaker System Features

Provides an authentic amp-in-the-room playing experience with any modeler

Choice of flat response or six classic guitar speaker models

250-watt amplifier delivers up to 125dB Peak SPL

12" custom hybrid coaxial driver

70Hz-20kHz neutral frequency response in Flat mode

Curved plywood construction results in a cabinet that is solid yet lightweight

Now imagine having an empty 1x12 speaker cabinet that you can instantly load with any one of six classic speaker types just by pressing a button. Setting the Powercab 112 to Speaker Modeling mode enables you to do just that—virtually—using a new technology developed by Line 6. Simply bypass the speaker cabinet models in your modeler’s signal chain and let Powercab 112 provide the sound and feel of playing through those classic speakers.

The Powercab 112 guitar speaker system accomplishes this by combining a clean 250-watt power amplifier with a custom hybrid coaxial speaker. The speaker combines the range, clarity, and power-handling capabilities of a P.A. speaker, with the rapid transient response of a guitar speaker, in just the right measure to function optimally in both Flat and Speaker Modeling modes. And Powercab 112 is loud, producing a room-filling 125dB SPL maximum volume.

In addition to sounding and responding like a true guitar cab, the Powercab 112 guitar speaker system also looks like one. Sturdily constructed of plywood, with a unique curved back that adds rigidity and decreases weight, Powercab 112 weighs a gig-friendly 35 pounds (16 kgs). And a flip-out kickstand allows it to be angled toward the performer, whether used in the backline or as a frontline monitor.

Designed for Guitarists - Inside and Out
The Powercab 112 guitar speaker system for modelers looks, sounds, and responds like a professional guitar amplifier, because that is essentially what it is. In Flat Mode, Powercab 112 delivers a neutral frequency response from 70Hz to 20kHz with plenty of headroom. There is no need to adjust your modeler’s settings—your presets will sound just the way you expect them to. But what most clearly differentiates the Powercab 112 from other products is Speaker Modeling.

Speaker Modeling
The sound of greatamplifiers is due to the speaker as much as from the other components, yet until now no one has modeled an actual speaker driver alone, independently from the cabinet it happens to be loaded into. Line 6 has done just that by creating models of six classic and boutique speakers which drive a custom-designed hybrid coaxial loudspeaker. A lightweight cone and high-temperature 2" voice coil deliver the punch and dynamic response you expect from a guitar speaker, along with the wide range of a P.A. speaker. This design adds unparalleled authenticity to the speaker models, and consequently the sound of your amp modeler, preamp, or even your stompbox amp-simulator.

Built For Gigging
The Powercab 112 features a highly efficient 250-watt power amplifier capable of producing up to 125dB Peak SPL—enough volume to fill a small club or medium-sized venue. And Powercab 112 is constructed to withstand the rigors of the road, while also being compact and weighing a mere 35 pounds (16 kgs). There’s also an XLR output featuring optimized microphone emulation for direct connection to a P.A., and foldout kickstands facilitate angled backline placement or use as an angled floor monitor.

I am comparing this to arguably the best small guitar cabnet you can get, a Marshall 1936 lead 2x12, i wish I bought the power cab instead of my 1936 lead, a line 6 power cab is less money sounds better and comes with a amplifier for God's sake, considering those factors I would say the line 6 power cab would be the best small guitar cabnet you can get
